Now that you have cleared your mind...start over. You have the right to be tired, but it appears the world does not allow it. Whenever you feel distraught...think of those unable to leave their bed due to illness, or think of the Hawks soaring in the sky and feel their power!
Make a list of everything and everyone dear to you! Then take Vivarin and drink coffee...your but will start moving and your mind will clear away the thoughts you have written!
I think Jesus was tired of carrying that big wooden cross to die on for our sins...please gain strength and love life each day. |

| I think I understand you, everyone gets tired too,some friends do slap you on the back or go behind your back, do not surrender, get that fighting will back,men can cry do it if you need to,. You can feel you just manybe think right now you can't, You can be a strong person, get that tired feeling out of your system. and be on the way to finding some happiness. Keep your spirits up, it is important you do this too. |

Expressed with honesty and just the right words. No masks.
Society expects us to be at our best, always.
Although these are difficult moments, we have a right to fragility, fatigue, even depression. This is often seen as an illness, but it does have a function; it's more like a symptom that is telling us something.
Your layout reflects the state you are in, very suitable for the content.
And I agree with Jackie's advice too...

Dang! That just about says it all, Dave. Ha! Me and my Kentucky Buddy were talking about the mistake we both made when we were born - we had obviously bought a ticket to the wrong world! Maybe, next time around, we will just hang out in the afterlife train station and watch all those other idiots boarding their trains.

Sometimes, a good many nights of eight hours sleep helps; and I don't mean that facetously...really. A tired body is a tired mind; a time when we have doubts about ourselves and others, and cannot rationalize the "small" things. In the scope of our total lives, so much is really "small" things. Don't allow others to mold your thoughts and feelings; it's only important for YOU to know who, what you are.
I learned all this when aging :o)

| Well stated Dave! There are those times when the same situations and problems drain and sadden us. Times when our efforts seem uneffective and our dreams elude us. Perhaps a change of situation or location might be of help. A new hobby, vacation or a new "face" can be very refreshing. |

Dave, this is excellent!
I can so relate to this poem.
This is so powerful, emotional, and truly speaks loudly even though written softly, of the 'selfishness and lack of consideration and inabilities to reach out and offer a heping hand' of others for one overwhelmed that is often known and seen so clearly.
I love the form and the way you've written every feeling here.
An excellent poem Dave
Thanks

| Dave, people who have compassionate hearts and are always reaching out to others, always seem to be taken for granted. They extend themselves so much become worn out and frazzled, while those they cared for hardly notice most times. But then, isn't that what Jesus did!?! I hope it will pass soon, and I'll second your prayer,that He will give you an abundance of good health energy and the will to begin again.In the meantime. Take a rest;-) Love, Eileen |
